It was worth it to stand on Bergisel and watch, even if the wind sometimes stuttered too hard. Freitag won against Kraft and a pair of long-lived Simon Ammann – Noriaki Kasai, who together came in third.

The Austrians, however, gave no other much more – in the top six were three of them, and of first Kraft, then Michael Hayboeck improved the hill record: first jumped 137, second 138 m (the old record of Sven Hannawald is 134.5 m).
